NMC prevents that. Doesn’t prevent them from forcing the issue other ways though.time to be cut throat
If JT doesn't want to be traded too bad. Put him on waivers.
Go spend his money in FA

Obliterated? Mathews and Nylander won't be going anywhere and Tavares isn't tradeable.Marner is toast, Cowan will take his place. Marner should just waive after July 2nd. They won't be re signing him because they can't.The core is about to get obliterated for sure. They made it pretty clear (even more than I expected) with their words.
Finally they're coming to their senses.
You can't eat it because then you can't replace him.He should be stripped of his C and retire. Offer him a job upstairs and tell him it's over.My bad on that. Yes, JT’s cap hit would make it extremely hard to do. Plus, even if he would waive his NMC which I don’t believe he would, it would be to go to a contender who, as you mentioned, would have to be able to absorb his cap hit. So either we would have to retain a chunk of that to make it possible, or else take back some of their bad contracts. Not going to happen, indeed.
Hyman will never be the player he is today if he stayed in TO.
I agree he is CAPTAIN materials but I don't think guys like AM and MM will listen to him.
He would be someone great in the locker room and do bring the lead by example leadership.
In hindsight, beside never signing Marleau and also JT.
Would really kept Kadri in the fold as a 2C to play with MM. Then have Hyman on the 3rd line with another 2 way C.
An era should have a lot of potential left when the team's best players are in their mid-20s. That's when most teams start being competitive.This era has no potential anymore. Not as it currently constructed with core 4. Do you think these guys are still kids?
Thats f***ing right Tre. Get the dubas cancer mindset and culture the F out of Toronto for good!
Where the folks who still believe Leafs always get "goalied"
Tre gets it
I’ve been a Leaf fan for a loooong time.It’s encouraging that at least someone in Leaf management gets it……..
How many did Boston score vs Toronto?
Yeah, they won the series in 7 games. Do you not know the answer?Unlike Toronto, enough to win.
And remember, the Leafs were the #2 scoring team in the league this year and managed only 12 goals in 7 games, Boston was tied for 12th.
I agree.An era should have a lot of potential left when the team's best players are in their mid-20s. That's when most teams start being competitive.
Destroying this era's potential would be a massive failure of Shanahan and Treliving.
Shanny brought JT to Toronto .. it was an inside family deal with a 25 year history .. and even then JT was back and forth between Isles and us friggin even a day before he told his uncle he was coming to us .. folks on here have no idear .. Dubie was strictly da PowerPoint guy .. there is not a chance in h*ll Shanny asks JT waive .. blood is thicker than team my friends .. what may occur is JT may go down with an injury like a bad back or concussion on Robidas island and come back for playoffs .. you guys do realize they have cottages in Muskoka almost right next to each other .. ask any of us who grew up on Hillside and played hockey/lacrosse together on da daily after St Leos .. in short it ain't happening .. JT is setup here now with his various real estate holdings, his wifes family, his family and his cottageFirst thing is ask Shanny to talk to JT to waive, then ask MM to waive.
Then trade both of them.
Calle and even Kampf is in play for the right deal.
Resign, Bert, Domi, Dewar and Boosh-coinflip on Edmundson due to his price.
Trade Gregor for late round picks.
Then go hunting for the right UFAs and trade targets.

Swayman has lost to Woll his entire life .. they have played against each other a lot .. outside of a couple nhl regular season games it is completely lopsided .. but keefer is pretty stupid in that he didn't check into da history between da 2 .. we had da better tender but he does get hurt a lot which is a problem .. and it occurred again .. Swayman is a mid tier pro tender well suited to a rotational role .. with Matty Willy and Woll healthy for da whole series we probably win 4-2 .. but bottom line Cats are flat out too good for us .. Bobbo and their D are straight up far superior and they have a big fast forechecking forward group who can cycle which is perfect for playoff hockeyWatching Florida light up Swayman is so frustrating. Even the most delusional Leaf fans who think we keep getting “goalied” year after year should find it hard to defend this team anymore.
Really hope there is a huge shakeup this off-season. Keefe is not enough. Shanahan should be gone, but hopefully he realizes he failed and will let Treliving do his thing and retool how he wants.
Brady for Marner straight up is a steal for the Leafs…….Brady may not out point Marner in the regular season but he can be a beast in the playoffs. He was crushing opponents the final few games of the season I saw. Too bad Dubas is not in charge of the Sens.
Talk’s cheap, let’s see if they follow through, I’m not convinced they will change much……I’ve been a Leaf fan for a loooong time.
I will still believe it when I see it.
It took 5 years (I will start from the Montreal series) to say the right things. Let’s see if they really get it.
Well we could always use more snot……I’d even do Marsha Brady for Mitch
She has the playoff warrior look at least.Brady for Marner straight up is a steal for the Leafs…….

I am really happy Tre mentioned how its both lack of offense and defense that make other teams goalies look superior. He needs to get to work.Watching Florida light up Swayman is so frustrating. Even the most delusional Leaf fans who think we keep getting “goalied” year after year should find it hard to defend this team anymore.

Use to date a girl on Hillside, I miss Mimico pizza more than I miss her, use to go to the Mimicombo every weekend……Shanny brought JT to Toronto .. it was an inside family deal with a 25 year history .. and even then JT was back and forth between Isles and us friggin even a day before he told his uncle he was coming to us .. folks on here have no idear ..

Really? Bc I don’t think the right voice will be able to get the top guys scoring in the playoffs.I agree.
The line between winning and losing is such a fine one come playoff time. I remember when the Caps finally busted through against the Pens they talked to Sid and asked him what the Caps did differently.
He answered saying they didn't do anything differently than other years. He cited how sometimes it comes down to a break here and a bounce there. He wasn't discrediting the Caps in any way but saying it's very hard to win in the playoffs.
Leafs core are in their prime right now and I truly think they need the right voice to get them over that hump.
Yeah maybe Woll could have stolen us the series, but I wont put this loss on Samsonov. Boston aren’t even good and Florida is showing it. Woll or not, we should have won.Swayman has lost to Woll his entire life .. they have played against each other a lot .. outside of a couple nhl regular season games it is completely lopsided .. but keefer is pretty stupid in that he didn't check into da history between da 2 .. we had da better tender but he does get hurt a lot which is a problem .. and it occurred again ..

I don’t think that would look good at all on the organization if they did that, especially if they tried to bring in any more “hometown” players who would be interested in coming here in the future.Obliterated? Mathews and Nylander won't be going anywhere and Tavares isn't tradeable.Marner is toast, Cowan will take his place. Marner should just waive after July 2nd. They won't be re signing him because they can't.
You can't eat it because then you can't replace him.He should be stripped of his C and retire. Offer him a job upstairs and tell him it's over.
